Consolidating manufacturing intelligence event queue items

A server computing device comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• one or more processor-executable instructions stored on a computer-readable storage medium of the server computing device, said processor-executable instructions including instructions that, when executed by the processor, implement:
• a runtime environment adapted to execute one or more model objects, said model objects corresponding to a process device within a continuous process,
• a scheduler process of the runtime environment, said scheduler process implementing a plurality of system events in accordance with a periodic schedule,
• an on-demand process of the runtime environment, said on-demand process implementing one or more aperiodic user events in response to receiving a request for the user events from a user device, and
• an event manager process of the runtime environment, said event manager process consolidating implementation of the plurality of the system events in accordance with the periodic schedule and the one or more aperiodic user events into implementation of a primary event,
• wherein the event manager process identifies one or more of the plurality of system events and one or more of the one or more user events of the plurality configured for a dequeuing process for consolidating implementation of the identified events,
• wherein the event manager process determines one of the identified events comprising the primary event based on a first in, first out priority of the identified events, and wherein the identified events other than the primary event each comprise one or more secondary events,
• wherein the event manager process extends a date range of the primary event to include at least a portion of a date range of the one or more overlapping secondary events of the first set,
• wherein the event manager process determines a first set of one or more of the secondary events configured for consolidating with the primary event based at least in part on the date range of the one or more secondary events of the first set overlapping at least a portion of the date range of the primary event, and
• wherein the runtime environment executes the one or more model objects in response to the implementation of the primary event wherein execution of the one or more model objects comprises the plurality of system events and the one or more aperiodic user events.
